A-1948. Photo Sta. No. 234. Retake of Photo No. 1019 originally taken by Griffiths about 1902. Original photo shows site of a sheep camp and bedding ground. Shrub growth along the wash has increased manyfold. Cacti have also come in noticeably on far ridge along with more mesquite. Grass cover does not seem greatly different, though comparisons are hard to make. (5x7) Sept. 1941.
